Starting on their 2025 season

The Slaton Tigers run out of the spirit tunnel for the first time this year Friday evening (Aug. 29) before their season opener against Friona. The team saw a rain delay at halftime, but finished out the game with a 50-22 win over the Chieftains. They will host their home opener Friday (Sept. 5) against Brownfield at 7 p.m. For story and photos, please read the Thursday edition of The Slatonite. (Melissa McCaghren/The Slatonite)
